10.14 Ribbon Saving SHIFT (Intermittent Mode)

10.14.1 Required Parameters

0 mm = It is always so far retracted that an optimal ribbon saving is
reached (no loss of transfer ribbon). This is rather rarely realised, as
the ribbon position can deviate because of inaccuracies at speed
measurement (encoder).
Default: -1 mm
−xx mm = The feedback can be made smaller. It causes loss of
transfer ribbon but the number of cycles is increased. If the value is
increased to the complete backfeed length then the direct print
module sets automatically the max. value and no more backfeed is
accomplished.
+xx mm = The feedback can be made larger. This causes that it is
printed onto the transfer ribbon in the previous printout.
Selection of transfer ribbon in meters that is used. Standard, Fast and
Low indicate the tightening force with which the transfer ribbon is
wound up.
Standard (Std) = used for normal transfer ribbon (for KCE
printheads).
Low = is selected if the transfer ribbon was torn in Standard mode or
the transfer ribbon can no longer be removed from the cassette. The
transfer ribbon is not accelerated as much as with Standard and
therefore it is also suitable when using thin transfer ribbon.
Fast = the transfer ribbon is accelerated faster and therefore a higher
number of cycles can be achieved. It can occur that the transfer
ribbon can no longer be removed from the cassette. To avoid this, an
optional cassette is available on request.
